92 points Wine Spectator: "[$45 list] This shows a lovely integration of acidity, mineral elements and fruit, while notes of verbena, honeysuckle and blanched almond add to the complexity. Yellow apple and melon take the main stage, while the crunchy texture makes this a beautiful food-pairing wine. Plummy and racy aspects counterbalance each other, keeping this intriguing through the savory finish. Drink now through 2030. 1,000 cases made, 100 cases imported.

The invigorating tension of the Clos de l'Ecotard 2017, with an exotic touch of the vintage, is reminiscent of the chiseled profile of the wines from the Roches Neuves estate, where Michel Chevré worked for many years."
